Oven Fried Tofish Sandwiches

Maybe it was a commercial, I don't know, but I got a fierce craving for a fish sandwich the other day. Being vegan, a fast food fish sandwich is unthinkable, and well, gross. Needing to satisfy this craving, I pulled some tofu from my freezer and sliced it up. What came next was close to amazing.

Oven Fried Tofish Sandwiches

One package extra firm tofu, frozen, thawed, pressed, sliced thin

1 c. breadcrumbs

1 t. kelp powder1 clove garlic, chopped1/4 t. paprika1 t. saltOlive oilMix everything but the tofu and olive oil together. Pour some of the olive oil in a separate bowl. Dip the tofu slices first in the olive oil, then into the breadcrumb mixture, coating evenly and well. Place on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, turning the tofu over after 15 minutes.Serve on buns with some lettuce and vegan tartar sauce. Enjoy!I have made tofish sandwiches before, but fried them. I much better like making them this way. They were crispy, tasty and omg good. My son and I had two sandwiches each, we couldn't get enough! Even my non-vegan husband agreed they were good. Success!

I served it with potato chips since we seem to have had fries several times lately.
